Married To My Billionaire Stepbrother - Chapter 309

Chapter 309: James’ Plan Chapter 309: James’ Plan At the Ford Mansion.

Everyone had returned home.

The air in the house was heavy, as if someone had died, and everyone was silent.

Even the servants didn’t dare to make a sound.

Sephina had locked herself inside her study, while Albert was in his room.

Jay, Clara, and Briena were in one room.

Jay looked as if his entire world had collapsed, while Briena and Clara were terrified of being kicked out of the house by Sephina.

“Father, don’t be so quiet.

Please say something,” Briena said anxiously.

“What can I say now?” Jay said helplessly.

“It’s all Caryn’s fault,” Clara said.

“She’s the one who caused this.” Jay looked at her as he realized something.

“What was the need to reveal that Natalie is not my daughter?

If you hadn’t done it€¦” “Now you blame me?” Clara interrupted him.

“That whore bore the child of some other man and fooled you, but you blame me?” Jay’s anger flared at the thought.

He had once liked Caryn-just like every other man had-since she was someone desired by all.

It had been a surprise when Caryn had agreed to marry him back then.

He had thought himself the luckiest man, but that woman had never loved him.

She had been selfish, always focused on her work, and had never given him any face as her husband.

If she had been even a little like other wives, he would have always loved her, but€¦ “Caryn would have revealed it sooner or later anyway.

She wants her daughter to take our company.

You don’t have to blame me for it,” Clara exclaimed.

“Mom, Dad, stop blaming each other.

Now, think about how to make Grandma still favor us and not disown us.

If that happens, we’ll be left with nothing,” Briena said.

“Even if your father is not her blood, he has been filial to her all his life.

She won’t just give up on him,” Clara added.

“Yes, Father.

You have to go and talk to Grandma,” Briena urged.

“It’s a shock for her.

Let her calm down first,” Jay replied, to which the other two nodded reluctantly.

—- At Brown’s Residence.

The Brown family was just as shocked as everyone else.

Amelia was utterly disappointed.

“I thought Briena would be CEO, so I already promised my friends a celebration party, but look at what happened.” “That Caryn-how is she still alive?” Irene said.

“Wasn’t she dead?” “That woman is a witch.

I’m sure nothing can kill her,” Amelia said angrily.

“She bewitched all the men in the past, and I’m sure she’s been hiding with one of her love interests.

Having a daughter with some other man while she was married to Jay-she truly proved us all right.” “Calm down, Amelia.

None of us expected this,” Ivan’s father tried to coax her.

Amelia looked at her husband angrily.

“You were one of her admirers as well.

You must be happy she’s back.” “What are you saying, Amelia?” the man exclaimed.

“Don’t say nonsense in front of the kids.” “What did I say wrong?” Amelia asked.

“Jay was crazy about her, and you€¦ you were married but still tried to hit on her along with Jay.” “Shut up, Amelia.

That was just our younger selves being in a fun mood.

There was no meaning to it.” “You two, please stop arguing,” Ivan, who had been quiet until now, finally interrupted them.

As they quieted down, Amelia spoke again.

“If Sephina Ford decides to disown Briena, what are you going to do?

Her father is basically adopted, and who knows what blood they carry€¦” “Mother, what are you even talking about?” Ivan interrupted her.

“I€¦ was just trying to remind you that you can still marry a better woman if Briena is no longer a Ford family daughter,” Amelia replied.

Irene spoke up.

“Mother, Briena is still successful, and soon she will be a star with her new movie.

My brother will still be marrying a superstar.” As she spoke, their parents agreed, while Ivan remained lost in his own thoughts.

“Ivan, what are you thinking about?” Amelia asked.

Ivan stood up.

“Mother, I have some work,” he said and left.

“Where is he going?” Amelia asked.

“Must be going to Briena to console her,” Irene replied.

“Ivan loves her.” Ivan sat in his car, “She must be in her office.” —– James Harper was sitting in his study, leaning back in the chair, lost in his thoughts.

His expressions were serious as she was thinking about something.  His assistant entered the room.

“Mr Harper, you asked for me?”  James hummed and said, “Find out where Caryn is staying in the Imperial city and make arrangement for me to leave as well.” “Are you going to Imperial city, Mr Harper?” the assistant asked to make sure as James had returned from there just recently and they had no work which called for them to Imperial city.  James simply hummed and dismissed him.  —– At Natalie’s office.  “Ms Natalie, Mr Ivan Brown is here.

He wants to meet you,” Ella informed.  Hearing it, Mia could not help but exclaim in disdain.

“What does that Jerk wants now?” “Send that Jerk away,” Cathy said with an angry frown.

“Bastard, how dare he showed up here.” Ella looked at Natalie anyways to get her orders.  Natalie, who was calm unlike her two friends, instructed.

“Send him in.” Ella left while the other two friends looked at Natalie, to which she said, “Don’t you two have any work to do today?” “We are in a mood to watch something interesting now,” Mia said, leaning back in her chair comfortably, “Let’s see what he is here for.” Cathy mirrored her action as she hummed as well and whispered to Mia.

“Maybe he would just end up being a punching bag for Natalie.” “That’s what I am waiting for,” Mia whispered back.

“She has been unusually quiet since she returned from the meeting.

Maybe it’s a good thing that she can let out some steam now.” “Where is Victor?

He might miss the show?” “Let me drop him a message,” Mia pulled out her cellphone and sent a message.
